I was being sarcastic since most subaru guys don't run wide wheels/tires. It's kind of a joke, you know? lol

No skinny wheels and tires for me. My new wheels would fill up the fenders of your cobra.

Nah not quite, but close. lol

Lead me to believe that I was missing something impressive. If this is totally normal, then why would "subaru people would love this car seeing as it has 17x7.5's and 215's on it!" ??

That's all I was asking. I'zz just confused lol.

It's ok.
I don't really get the point of the whole aggressive wheel fitment thing on WRX/STi either....

Oh ok lol. I didn't ge the joke lol.

I'm actually waiting to go bigger myself D. I want some 315's.

CHAOS · 01-16-2008, 01:13 PM

i find it kinda funny that is called aggressive but i guess there isnt a better term for it really. its just low offsets.

No, it's more about fitting the widest wheel/tire possible, not just about the face of the wheel.

You can't run a 18x9.5 +48, since it won't clear the inside, that's why with the wider wheel the lower offset is required. You knew this Jon, you knew this!

315's are beasts! Do it!!!!!!

Sorry to confuse you earlier.

CHAOS · 01-16-2008, 01:44 PM

i understand why people do it.. but it just sounds silly to call it aggressive.. its just the only way to fit wider wheels on a stock body and have them fit properly.

What's different about doing it on a wrx/sti than on any other kind of car? If you like the look, go for it,
who cares what kind of car you drive.

CHAOS · 01-16-2008, 02:19 PM

lol why would anyone fight? its all love here.

ozthunder · 01-16-2008, 02:19 PM

I wish my car could hold aggressive wheels..I may be more ****ed than you subie guys..at least your bolt pattern isn't in common with only the ****ing 3 series.

CarbonIS · 01-16-2008, 02:29 PM

what is ur bolt pattern?

ozthunder · 01-16-2008, 02:31 PM

Bolt Pattern - 5x120.0mm
Offset - +48mm
Hub Diameter -69.6mm

Not to mention the most radical tires I can fit back there MAY be a 275/285 on the stock 17's. On a MUSCLE CAR.

CHAOS · 01-16-2008, 02:32 PM

his wheel selection really is ****ed thanks to GM.. theres very little room under the fender... so i guess we need to pull them.

CarbonIS · 01-16-2008, 02:33 PM

def. pull them! throw some 315's under there!

CHAOS · 01-16-2008, 02:34 PM

hahahahaha

dylan, youve jumped head first into the bowl of wheel fanboi's... myself included. lol

ozthunder · 01-16-2008, 02:34 PM

Yea I have 255's on there now...245's stock all around, im doing 255/235 r/f. I'd love for some 315's..more meat= more muscle, baby.

How long does pulling take? I'll need a wider wheel too, but that'll come this summer hopefully.

ozthunder · 01-16-2008, 02:35 PM

Good, I want ideas, and no ****ing torq-thrusts!

CHAOS · 01-16-2008, 02:35 PM
